The children's aid society brought a protection application regarding three children who had been exposed to emotional harm due to extreme high-conflict litigation between their parents.
The court had previously convened a hearing on its own motion due to concerns about the children's safety and the society's inaction.
The court found reasonable grounds to believe the children were at risk of harm and could not be adequately protected by a supervision order, particularly given the mother's refusal to cooperate and the father's lack of contact.
The court ordered the children to be placed in the temporary care and custody of the society.
